It demonstrates the stagnant, limited, inside the box, thinking of ownership and management

Wow! 22 page thread for one topic. Haven't seen that here in a while. Portends great days to come for the team and supporters, I hope!

Adams and Ruff will meet the media Tuesday at 1 p.m. The press conference will be carried live on the Sabres' Facebook, X, and YouTube channels

I was wondering what happened to Randall Flagg. I enjoyed his insights.

Some would call player interviews in the locker room after losses, with the respective player commenting, "I(we). have to do better" (all season long), being accountable.

What is he supposed to do? If the buck stops with him, as he claims, then the honorable thing is to resign. He essentially gave"responsibility" lip service and you apparently bought it.

Please! Most posters on this forum were pointing out the shortcomings Adams noted in his presser about this roster and coaching staff since early in the season. He said playoffs were the expectation at the beginning. He wasted a year!

It's a legitimate question. In his presser, he was emphatic that this debacle of a season was on him.

That's not good enough.

Seppuku for Adams!

All in on Brind'Amour

I think at the least, the first two questions speak directly to coaching. Accordingly, anything less than replacing Granato and his entire staff represents being in denial.

Sounds like walking on a treadmill.

Dahlin is not on the ice as much as Allen is in respective game. If you had 6 Dahlins on the team you could make that argument.

...and Pegula created Adams.

They suck!

a near miss is still a miss; not good enough

This is where Adams should fall on his saber. He told everyone that playoffs were the expectation this season.

He is unlistenable.

They make it to the finals, then Pegula extends Adams, Granato, and Ellis. Yeah, that's my dream.

There is no accountability. Adams said at the beginning of the season that playoffs were the expectation. Rookie GM and rookie NHL HC. For Adams to even mention "more compete" at this point is beyond infuriating. They both need to be jettisoned, no excuses. This ownership sucks!

This trade has the Pegula stank all over it. Come on, Wegmans, make it happen so we can launch this front office into the Sun!

Great guy, but he should have been cut loose last year. His signing was just one more symptom of Adam's failure to do anything meaningful last offseason.

5. Kevin Adams will be in charge of cleanups in Aisle 6.

But, what about all that "One Buffalo" merch?
